    Salmon bites, fried pickles and fried chicken were all good. Three butter pecan waffle had great flavor but was a little too doughy for me. The latimer was just OK, but I'm also not a frozen drink person, so try at your own risk. Our server Ronnie was great. Atmosphere was great as well.

    We have had dinner here a few times, which is an outstanding experience with a lively but comfortable atmosphere. This was my first time having lunch here and it was equally wonderful. It didn't have the same amount of people as a weekend night, understandably, but it was a perfect choice for a business lunch. The lunch menu is priced very well and has a large amount and variety of menu selections to choose from, all at a very reasonable price for lunch. Our service was quick and our server was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly, and professional - Shoutout Dimitri :) ! I always recommend Angeline's as a great dinner spot in Uptown Charlotte, but will add it to my lunch recommendations for people in Uptown as well!
